Good to hear Dave. Still will include you in my prayers for a quick and complete recovery. Make sure you do the exercises that the PT people give you as homework.

Hey Woody I still have some summer sausage left. If jbdinos has room in his truck for another 9lbs I'll send 3 rolls with him.

I don't know about the park hunts, but I asked the question on the dnr website, and was informed that a lifetime license was good for a lifetime even if you move out of state. It doesn't make sense to me, but if my company moves me it will be nice to be able to hunt Indiana when I come to visit.

Sorry to hear about your accident Dave. I'll be praying for you. I hope that you recover in time to get some hunting in.

jbdinos,
Are you going to be able to hunt on Nov 7 and 8? I thought that maybe we could go to Big Oaks and try to get drawn in, since we both live in the area.

You don't need to tell them who your buddy is, but both of you have to take the safety course to hunt in Big Oaks.
jbdinos- I got drawn for the same hunts that you did. Early versailles orange and big oaks 11/20. Unsuccessful for Charleston late. Man I am going to quit putting in for that place either there are a huge amount of applications or a small number accepted. Three years and not a smell. Have you hunted Versailles orange before?

I got drawn for 11/20 also, but I don't even have an unsuccessful for the state parks yet.

Someone pick a date and I'll do all I can to be there.
Hey, If it is in Indy maybe we could have lunch on the Governers front lawn. He lives about a block from Butler.

I'm thinking that this could kill more deer. supported

Yeah, I love the way he says switching to more antlerless deer not more female deer. that is because last year for every 5.5 females killed there is a male antlerless deer killed.
How hunters are taking these explanations I would venture to guess he really does know. He doesn't want to talk about it, because he is the spin doctor for the DNR.
And of course hunters like these proposals if they are in the my way is better than your way bowhunting groups.

Wow, It is hard for me to believe that anyone can look at the chart and not summize that the deer are moving more between 10/29 and 11/15. I don't think that there is that much more pressure to push them, but if that is what makes them move during that time but not after (when gun season is normally in) then we should move the season forward.

There is another thing to consider when you talk about park hunts. The people who own land around the park help to reduce the parks heard by setting up within 100 yards of the fences on those 4 days. Especially if they haven't killed their buck yet. I hunted in Clifty last year and there were 5 guys that I could see from my stand.

Gene said that it was going to be at least 9 months before the hearing judge would even hear it. It would take that long for it to be on the calendar.

jjas, These are the exact numbers that I was asking Gene about. He says that the bb have always been counted as male deer. I also sent the question to the nrc with the numbers that say that for every 5.5 does that are killed there is a bb killed. We would have had to kill 99000 does to achieve the 60% that they want, and with a bb being killed every 5.5 doe the number is unattainable!!

Well I asked because the dnr reports anleterless and antlered deer harvest numbers. If they would take the button buck box off of the check in sheet. We would already be at the 60/40 that they want. If the hunting community wasn't as honest as it is this whole problem would be a mute point.
